Highlights:

Sightseeing flight

Reykjavik area & nearby mountains

Description:

This is the ultimate adventure sightseeing tour of the stunning nature surrounding Reykjavik (English translation: Smoky Bay). The aircraft is a two-seater, slow flying “Ultralight” aircraft, able to fly low over the ground. The wings are overhead and the windows open fully, giving you a perfectly unhindered view of the ground below. Be prepared for an unparalleled photographic view! Your aerial view: the vast Atlantic ocean, Reykjavik city and it’s tiny islands, lava fields and the geothermal area producing the smoke giving Reykjavik it’s name. You will explore: the rugged mountains and lava formations of the bay, coastline skimming with possible seal sightings, up-close mountain soaring among birds. Adrenaline option: optional aerobatic stomach-churning moves (if that’s your cup of tea). If conditions allow you might get to take the wheel (joystick, actually).
